Dear Sirs: 


In accordance with the arrangements made with you 
today, I am Shipping to you by vans the first of the material 
from my Flushing Shop. 


As I explained to you, it is impossible for me to 
give sufficient time and personal attention to two shops. The 
New York business has grown to the point where it requires all 
my time and for that reason I am closing my place in Flushing. 


You will find that the Flushing stock contains items 
of wide scope and varied interest, representing, as it does, five 
years of careful selection from the important auction sales, 
various private sources, and items gathered throughout the New 
England States. 


Comparatively few of the many interested buyers of 
antiques have seen this stock, due to the Flushing location 
being rather remote from New York City, and I am sure it will 
meet with the favorable attention of your large clientele, 


In closing let me say that I am sending the Flushing 
stock in its entirety, nothing having been withdrawn or reserved, 
As per our arrangement, this is to be catalogued by your experts. 


Yours very 


Ot
